Cinevate Inc CINJIB01 overview

1Description

The Cinevate Axis Jib features a 6 ft single-tube aluminum arm with all mechanical components enclosed inside. The arm provides a 4 ft reach from the fixed tripod mount yoke and a 7 ft vertical arc. It was designed stress-tested for maximum stiffness with 3D modeling software and supports a 50 lb payload.

The tripod mount yoke features a 100mm half-ball, pan and tilt locks, a magnetic dry-erase marker ring on each side, and a variety of accessory mounting threads. The marker rings are removable. The fluid head end features a 100mm bowl and is adjustable to three different positions, including under-slung for low angle shots.

The rear handles are 1" in diameter and support all standard dumbbell weights for counterbalance. Weights are not included. A 2 lb trim weight underneath the handles is slide-adjustable to fine-tune balance, and an integrated bubble level will help measure the adjustments. A 63" soft case with wheels is included for transport.

High quality buildThis is the second Jib/Crane product I've owned. I outgrew my first Cobracrane when I upgraded my camera to a Panasonic HPX250 camera. The Cobracrane I had could efficiently support the additional weight.In typical Cinevate fashion, the Axis Jib is a uniquely designed, professional quality product. It's easy to assemble and operates very smoothly. I love the fact that all the mechanics are enclosed in the single tube design. I use it mounted on a Manfrotto 545B tripod for a nice and sturdy ensemble.It comes with a much needed high quality case.

Extremely smooth, easy to setup & operate.The best jib is it's class. My only wish - a longer arm. Don't mess around with the Manfrotto tripod. Purchase the Kessler K-Pod with wheels. Trust me. It takes roughly 15-30 minutes to setup. Easy, easy, easy. Don't leave it in the sun for an extended period of time. The cool surface gets HOT. I will never part with this jib. Love it!
